A Master of Science in Management (M.S.M) is a professional degree designed to prepare students for leadership and managerial roles in all organizations. Students are given a strong foundation in analytical problem solving, budgeting and finance, ethics, human resource, and project management skills. Different than an M.B.A., the M.S.M. degree focuses specifically on the discipline of management--enhancing your professional ability to manage organizational resources more effectively. The MSM Degree Program combines a strong academic foundation with practical knowledge and skills in management taught by leading management educators.
